ARE you an official at the level of deputy secretary or director, and now in Central deputation? Here’s a chance to try your luck to become the Adviser to the Executive Director in the African Development Bank for a period of three years.

The mandatory qualifications include at least 2 years at the Centre under the Central Staffing Scheme, and a maximum age of 54 years. Also, the officer should not have been nominated for foreign training, and should not be on training or foreign assignment currently. What’s more, the officer should not be on study leave or long leave. The cumulative experience of 24 months in the fields of finance, commerce, industry and textiles are also a requirement. A degree in economics would be considered desirable and those having experiences in the department of economic affairs under the ministry of finance would be given preferences. The last date of application is April 5, 2010.

If the state of Bihar can produce so many IAS and IPS officers every year who have made immense contributions to the development of many Indian states, why can’t Bihar improve its own state of affairs? The question came from none other than Congress leader Rahul Gandhi who addressed a few gatherings in that backward state recently. The AICC general secretary, however, showered praise for youths of Bihar who have contributed in economic rejuvenation of other states.

He reminded the state’s youths with talents to qualify IAS exam that they needed to look within and introspect why Bihar turned out to be a laggard for the last 20 years!
